Interesting,
You may have flummoxed it with the double color reference
background-color : #05695c;
color : #000;
font-family : Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size : 80%;
color : #02486c;
Try removing the black one (color : #000;) and see if it fixes it.

Do a sans-serif or serif as the last specified font.
Congratulations!

Is what I get when I validate the CSS directly, or through the site!!
Dunno what's going on. I quickly checked and you've got a generic font
on the 3 font-families. I'd just say it's the validator being stupid.

Look at the last rule in your CSS where you have Sans Serif instead of the
generic sans-serif.
Chances are that's what the validator was looking at (Line : 0 obviously
doesn't tell us anything).
Thanks for the code tip, Grant. Works great (gotta do a bit of
tweaking, but still works!). I put this xml line above the DOCTYPE:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
I assume that's right?
Thanks again!

Hi,
I know this is only partly related to web standards and I apologize for
that.
Here are my 3 questions:
1. Why won't IE pick up the .tabs hover style?
2. Is there a way to get IE to play along? Since I couldn't figure out
how to get it to work I added a CC for IE as you can see here
Hi all
Am now working on a template for all pages of my site other than the
main page.
I want to change the background color of the #container on various
pages. So far, I have come up with
#container
{
margin: 0;
background-color: #e0;
background-image: url(xxx.gif);
background-repeat:
Two things.
You can shorten your three background declarations into one (depending on
the browsers you are trying to target):
background: #eee url(xxx.gif) repeat-y;
And you can place a unique id in the body element and then use this id to
change colours on individual pages without having to
Just a heads up, always look for No errors or warnings. You can get the
congrats but still have warnings if you scroll down. Jackie's concern was a
warning even though it was valid css.

Yes that is a great page... The fix was simply to point to a style sheet
that existed. The link I had to a blank one was broken. IE 5 displays both
pages the same, it is only Safari that puts in some odd margin's in the p.

You will find that adding a space between the two items #meetings

Hi All
I've got an odd case of an intranet page that generates a very wide

My experience with Vignette CMS has produced horribly non-standard code,
regardless of the power behind the CMS itself. Vignette isn't popular
because it does things right. Frankly, I just think it's popular because
it costs an arm and leg to use, so hell -- it has to be good! right!?

These ideas may already have been considered but here they are anyway...
1. set unneeded items on the page to display:none eg: menus taking up
horizontal space
2. give the table an id and in the print css set that id as

You seem to be up against a rendering issue that you can probably not
solve with your current method.
When I resize the browser window in Firefox your header appears to move
1 px away from the left edge of your centred column and then back
again. So it looks like Safari, and then aligns

Although I personally don't care much for imagemaps I was forced to use

possible, I made it a client-side map. I was a good boy and provided alt

Jackie,
The height didn't change the transparency. It revealed more of your
#nav1's background image. Remember, a float (unless cleared) will
happily extend beyond the borders of its container. Except in IE PC,
but that is a bug.
So if you want your #nav1's background to resize in proportion

I've got rid of everything I can and reduced the fonts as much as I
dare and its still 300px too wide for a landscape A4.
I've tried setting widths to auto, 100%, px - nothing makes a difference.

I'm not sure many people are using JAWS in firefox? I was under the
impression that most users were on IE because of the accessible
